 WHAT IS IT

Types of Speech Context

1. Intrapersonal – This refers to communication that centers on one person
where the speaker acts both as the sender and the receiver of message.
“The message is made up of your thoughts and feelings. The channel is
your brain, which processes what you are thinking and feeling. There is
feedback in the sense that as you talk to yourself, you discard certain
ideas and replace them with others.” (Hybels & Weaver, 2012, p 16)
Examples:
• You spent the night thinking and analyzing why a student from the
other class talked to you on the way home and you decided it probably
meant nothing.
• You felt happy while thinking about how your teacher appreciated
you for submitting your project before the due date and you reflected on
why this was so.
2. Interpersonal – This refers to communication between and among people
and establishes personal relationship between and among them.
Solomon and Theiss (2013) state that “the inter part of the word
highlights how interpersonal communication connects people… when
you engage in interpersonal communication, you and another person
become linked together… The personal part means that your unique
qualities as a person matter during interpersonal communication…” (p.
5)
Types of Interpersonal Context

a. Dyad Communication – communication that occurs between

two people

Example:
• You offered feedback on the speech performance of your
classmate.

• You provided comfort to a friend who was feeling down.

b. Small Group – This refers to communication that involves at

least three but not more than twelve people engaging in a
face-to-face interaction to achieve a desired goal. In this type
of communication, all participants can freely share ideas in
a loose and open discussion.

Example:

4
 • You are participating in an organizational meeting which
aims to address the concerns of your fellow students.

• You are having a discussion with your group mates on how

to finish the assigned tasks.

c. Public – This type refers to communication that requires you

to deliver or send the message before or in front of a group.
The message can be driven by informational or persuasive
purposes. “In public communication, unlike in interpersonal
and small group, the channels are more exaggerated. The
voice is louder and the gestures are more expansive because
the audience is bigger. The speaker might use additional
visual channels such as slides or a Power Point
presentation.” (Hybels & Weaver, 2012, p 19)

Example:

• You deliver a graduation speech to your batch.

• You participate in a declamation, oratorical, or debate contest

watched by a number of people.

d. Mass Communication – This refers to communication that

takes place through television, radio, newspapers, magazines,
books, billboards, internet, and other types of media.

Example:

• You are a student journalist articulating your stand on current

issues through the school’s newspaper.
